Rotisserie Chicken and Stuffing Casserole
Here’s a simple, comforting Rotisserie Chicken and Stuffing Casserole that’s as effortless to prepare as it is to enjoy. Gather your loved ones, serve up this hearty dish, and relish the cozy satisfaction of a home-cooked meal.
Ingredients
- 1 package Stove Top stuffing mix (add more if you’re a stuffing lover!)
- 1 whole rotisserie chicken, cooked and shredded
- 1 ½ cups water or chicken broth (for extra flavor)
- ¼ cup butter (for sautéing)
- 3 stalks celery, finely diced
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (for creaminess)
- ½ can cream of mushroom soup (adds rich flavor)
- 8 ounces sour cream (for a tangy touch)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat: Set your oven to 350°F and lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Stuffing: In a medium saucepan, bring water or chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the stuffing mix, then remove from heat. Cover and let it sit until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before using.
- Sauté: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced celery and onion, sautéing until soft and fragrant, which will enhance the flavor of the butter.
- Make the Creamy Mixture: In a bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream to create the creamy layer that will bind the casserole.
- Assemble: Evenly spread the shredded chicken in the baking dish. Top with the sautéed onion and celery, seasoning with salt and pepper. Pour the creamy soup mixture evenly over the top.
- Add Stuffing: Spread the fluffy stuffing over the casserole, forming a crisp, savory top layer.
- Bake: Place in the oven and bake for about 1 hour until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Enjoy the comfort of a perfectly baked casserole!
